第1より第2の方がいいですね。

彼女の良さがよく出ています。

[1999hercule1999]

An amazing performance. It's just such a shame that she's retired now.

@1999hercule1999 - She just today announced her comeback!

This music is so strong that each time I listen to the section from 7'15 to 8'30, I simply stand still and get to a level of peacefullness which is so relaxing ! The absolute highlight for me is when at 7'42 the mood, which in essence is Beethoven's expression of his own frustration at becoming deaf (so I read), changes to a truly breathtaking beauty.

1:55 Tennestedt blew a load ;)

[rumblmuck]

don't know much about classical music theory, but for me she is the among best, together with David Oistrakh. Very impressive, indeed ....

It seem Chung and her violin is one body. She looks as if she is meditating. Exquisite especially around 5:15 and on. Loved her Bach Chaconne on another Youtube channel from Germany.

[nocoincidence59]

Chung's violin sounds SOOOOO rich. It feels as if her violin is singing. Very moving to hear her playing this piece. Thanks for sharing!

[Verityseo]

5':14 my favorite moment

[l1mmg0t]

All Beethoven's 2nd movement adagio are great. True true genius.......

[chulesq]

Look at her eyes during the second movement. It is as if she were following the ghost of Beethoven floating in the air.

[Fr3derick]

I prefer Kyung Wha Chung's playing to Sophie Mutter. She does not exaggerate or overly accentuates notes and phrases. Her playing is very sensitive and has a natural and subtle beauty to her playing. I especially like how she does not overdo her vibrato.

[fingerhorn4]

Agree Fr3derick. Mutter kind of lost the plot with over exaggerations and ridiculous pppp's then sudden ffff's, and sudden no vibrato with just as sudden full on vibrato to no purpose. Chung's playing is ALWAYS musical and always with great taste. Her subtle passion is lovely here. Just listen to those beautiful high notes in this slow movement. Absolutely gorgeous sound.

[violinmusicfan]

right on!

[Fr3derick]

Her playing is so sensitive and beautiful.

このコンチェルトで第２楽章がゆったりと、恐る恐る、綺麗な調べ­で始まるのが最高です、私の大好きな曲です。

[deftius]

This is a great performance by soloist, conductor, and orchestra. I love watching Klaus Tennstedt in this.
